Sunscreen is a skincare staple that should be incorporated into our daily beauty routine. But did you know that you should be reapplying sunscreen every 2-3 hours? This is because sunscreen breaks down when exposed to sunlight and can also wear off when we perspire. Now let's be honest, given our hectic schedules and a face full of makeup, reapplying sunscreen multiple times in a day can be quite a hassle.
Here's where the sun stick comes in. The application process takes mere seconds and best of all, you can apply it over your makeup without ruining your look.
